"Didn't you say the side effects were severe? Then why is it still used?" Kanna hadn't expected this outcome.
"After all, for patients whose blood Originium concentration is rapidly increasing and uncontrollable, besides death, this is currently the only life-saving solution we have to save them. Although even if they survive, they must live in an isolation zone, at least they survived."
Perfumer sighed after relighting the incense beside her.
"Even if the side effects are significant, they are alive, and the oripathy in their bodies has been successfully contained. Aside from excessively fast hair growth, there are no other issues. For those still suffering from oripathy and those who have died from it, this is already the best possible outcome."
Thinking of those who, unable to endure the pain of oripathy, chose to end their own lives, Kanna and the others nodded in agreement.
Soon after, Ifrit and Lava also arrived at the cabin. Lava also brought news of Qianhu and Yuli. After their physical examinations, they were fortunate to discover that although they had stayed in the wilderness for a long time, they had not contracted oripathy. Moreover, both were found to have a high affinity for Originium Arts. As ordinary people, they could easily unleash Originium Arts through tools and equipment, so they were recommended to join the ranks of reserve Operators. After completing their basic studies, they could join Rhodes Island's reserve Operator roster.
Kanna was also very happy that the two girls, who had endured hardships in the wilderness, possessed such high potential. She stated that once they officially became reserve Operators, she would give them a grand gift.
Afterward, the group chatted about their experiences over the past six months. Kanna then learned that everyone in the reserve team had successfully shed the 'reserve' designation after a year of training and had officially become full-fledged Rhodes Island Operators.
If reserve Operators were primarily responsible for support and logistical work, then as official Operators, the tasks they faced were more often in frontline environments in various locations. This inevitably led to injuries, and if rescue was not timely, reports of Operators going missing or even dying were common.
The members of A1 Team were injured when they were ambushed by wilderness bandits while on an escort mission, leading to Fang and Kroos's injuries.
Hearing this, Kanna's idea resurfaced. After she told everyone about her idea, the group, led by Amiya, marched to Instructor Viktor's location.
Upon reaching the training ground, Kanna saw Lava of A1 Team. She was discussing something with Viktor. From the aura she exuded, which felt much stronger than before, it was evident that her strength had significantly improved.
Upon seeing Amiya and her group, Lava greeted them and then walked to the side to continue her training.
Viktor looked at Amiya and the others in surprise. "Why are you here? Is there something you need my help with?"
Amiya nodded and then explained Kanna's idea.
Viktor pondered for a moment after listening. "We previously tried to analyze Kanna's Originium Art. Although we didn't gain much, it wasn't entirely without value.
I understand Kanna's intention, but lightning, as a powerful force, comes at the cost of extremely short duration and extreme difficulty in stability.
Has Kanna already mastered the stability of lightning to achieve this?"
Kanna extended her small hand, and a small figure formed of lightning appeared in her palm. Under Viktor's astonished gaze, the figure waved at him and then began to ballet dance in Kanna's palm.
"A very imaginative Originium Art, and incredibly perfect control. With just this one display, no one can teach you anything more about Originium Art control," Viktor exclaimed in admiration. It's important to know that lightning is different from other elements; even when condensed into an electric sphere, it still continuously dissipates energy outwards. For Kanna to condense it into a small figure with clear facial features while not dissipating any energy, Viktor stated that even if he practiced specifically for ten years, he probably couldn't do better.
"Since you've achieved stability, then to fulfill your idea, you need the Originium Art to last longer. And lightning-type Originium Arts, as is well known, have the largest and fastest energy consumption among all Originium Arts. Your Electro Seed's ability to retain lightning elements for a week is already quite remarkable in my opinion. If you want to extend it..."
Viktor pondered for a long time, then walked to the nearby library and took out a book. He handed the book to Kanna before continuing,
"According to research, all Originium Arts have two forms: active and inert. Typically, once an Originium Art is activated, it remains in its active state. The energy consumption of an Originium Art in its active state is usually dozens or even hundreds of times greater than in its inert state."
So, if you can keep this spell in an inert state and preserve it, then activate it through stimulation to transform it into an active form, I believe you can achieve the extended spell effect you desire.
This book records the thoughts and practices of the author who discovered these two forms; you can refer to it.
I think the method of preservation using a container on page seventy-four has great experimental value, although the author of this book failed in that experiment. I look forward to you perfecting it."
Kanna-chan carefully accepted the book. After thanking Viktor, the group left the training ground together.
Back in the little house in the Greenhouse, everyone read the book they brought back from Viktor. However, as a professional book documenting Originium Arts, its content could only be described as abstruse and difficult to understand. Soon, Popukar was the first to doze off, followed by Ifrit and Dahlia. Rosmontis was still holding on simply because she didn't understand it in the first place, so her attention wasn't on the book at all... In the end, only Amiya and Kanna-chan continuously discussed the contents of the book.
After much discussion, they had to admit that the plan Viktor had mentioned earlier was the best option they could think of. However, when it came to choosing and making such a container, both of them were completely clueless.
But Kanna-chan was no longer flustered. Since she had found her goal, the next steps would be much easier. As for the container, Kanna-chan instantly thought of the best tool in Rhodes Island—a certain unknown 'Year' lady, the great director.
At this moment, Year was holding the script she had meticulously polished during this period, preparing to film on Rhodes Island. To this end, she even pulled some strings to get investment from the Lungmen Lungmen Guard Department / Guard Department and was now ready to show off her skills.
After all, Kanna-chan had been running around with others for so long. Now that she was finally back, it wouldn't be right for Kanna-chan to ask her for help again (not!).
